Chapter 784: Chapter 780: The Truth about Mom and Dad’s Car Accident
Richelle Dunn nodded.
“Jayden Dunn is very crafty, he knows better than anyone else that their family’s time is running out. Roy Lewis and I will soon find the evidence to send them all to the gallows. They’re living with a sword hanging over their heads. So at this point, he doesn’t care about public opinion. He’s chosen the most dignified and comfortable way to try and slip through the cracks.”
Hugo Camrey sneered at this.
“He’s certainly optimistic. It seems you guys should set a time to come up with a strategy with Roy Lewis, in case they actually find a loophole.”
Richelle nodded, “Alright, we’ll find ways to expose their true colors.”
After talking with Hugo, Richelle went to finish up some other errands. After eleven o’clock, she heard some noise downstairs. She descended the stairs and saw Roy Lewis coming in through the front door.
“You’re still up?”
The eyes of Roy, which were previously fatigued, lit up with a different kind of light as he saw Richelle.
Richelle came forward to take his bag and looked at him seriously, getting close and sniffed.
“You had a drink?”
Roy put one arm around her waist and guided her inside.
“Yes, I met some important figures and we had some wine. Don’t worry, I didn’t go over my limit.”
Knowing that his work inevitably involved some drinking, Richelle had already specified the drinking limit for him.
However, this was the first time in nearly a month that Roy had a drink.
Richelle hummed in response, “Would you like to eat something first or do you want to take a shower?”
Roy was hungry, but he didn’t want Richelle to see him in a disheveled state, so he said
“I’ll go have a shower first!”
By the time he’d finished showering, Richelle had already set out his midnight snack on the dining table: a plate of rice noodle, a plate of shrimp omelette, and a bowl of soup.
“I took your pulse last night and found your spleen and stomach were weak, so this soup is for nourishing them. Make sure to finish it.”
Roy responded with a hum, pulling her into a hug as they both sat down.
“The children are fine, right?”
Richelle filled him in on what happened with Timmy, and without thinking, Roy responded.
“Timmy’s personality is my fault!”
Richelle shook her head, using another pair of chopsticks to pick up some shrimp omelette and brought it to his mouth.
Roy opened his mouth to accept the piece. Only after this did Richelle speak, “You also grew up in such an environment yourself. If we had to blame anyone, it would be the effect of growing up in a large family.”
Roy hummed in response, “Shall we then consult an educational expert to see how we can correct these issues?”
Richelle didn’t think the issue was this severe, “We don’t need to ‘correct’ per se, just to teach him to be a bit more smooth in his dealings. Otherwise, in interacting with people, he may unknowingly hurt others.”
“However, luckily, Timothy and Tifanny can provide guidance in this aspect. After yesterday’s incident, he should be more aware of this issue. Let’s see if he can make any changes through self-adjustment in the future.”
Richelle knew she was being a bit harsh.
If Timmy’s nature was presented before the old Roy, there wouldn’t be a problem at all.
However, Richelle was afraid that because of this, Timmy would hurt others unintentionally and ultimately hurt himself in the process.
“Alright, for now, you’ll have to take care of this.”
Roy admitted that he had been quite disappointing to Richelle and the children, and their home.
As head of the family, he had not only pushed all the household responsibilities onto Richelle, but also the burdens of his career.
However, it was fortunate that Richelle was willing to stand by his side through life and death, through thick and thin.
Richelle helped pour the soup into his bowl, “It’s not too much trouble, compared to other children, ours are relatively well-behaved.”
Roy agreed with this.
In the past, he didn’t have the habit of discussing his children with others. However, now he had sometimes chatted with his driver, secretary and subordinates about their children.
After these conversations, he realized that compared to the mischievousness of other children, their own kids were like angels.
“You’re right, our three kids probably don’t give us as much trouble combined as one child from another family.”
Richelle agreed with Roy’s statement.
Once they finished discussing the kids, Richelle brought up Jayden’s situation.
After listening, Roy Lewis nodded.
“That’s perfect, I have to go to Lordon the day after tomorrow. I’ll ask around about their father and son’s activities.”
Richelle responded with an “oh” and then listened as Roy continued.
“Originally, I planned to discuss this matter once I had substantial leads. However, since you brought up Jayden, I might as well mention it now.”
Richelle listened attentively, waiting for him to continue.
“Yesterday, I had a meeting with an ambassador from Slavine. After finishing our official business, I inquired about your parents’ case. Coincidentally, this ambassador worked in the police department where your parents’ incident occurred because foreign nationals were involved, he remembered the case vividly. I’ve asked him to help ask his old colleagues about the case, to see if they recall any doubts or details.”
Richelle was somewhat taken aback by what he said, she hadn’t expected this news.
It took a moment for her to process it, and when she finally did, her eyes started to tear up.
